Jeter's Next Big Swing

"I don't miss playings," says the retired Yankee, as the press-shy captain leads website The Players' Tribune, where DeAndre Jordan and Tiger Woods break news (sorry, ESPN) and backers are betting on a media home run

A local radio host had invited Amanda Berry, whose first public appearance since being released included dancing with Nelly.

Cleveland kidnapping victim Amanda Berry this weekend made a surprise appearance at a local concert in what was reportedly her first public event since she was freed from more than a decade of captivity and abuse.

Berry was brought onstage at Cleveland's RoverFest 2013 concert on Saturday. She was introduced by a local radio host and was greeted with cheering and a massive round of applause, ABC News reported.

"She didn't say why she decided to come, but some of her family members told me they listen to my show every day and had been to RoverFest in the past," French told the AP.

"I didn't see her cry, but I think she was pretty overwhelmed by the response that the crowd gave her," he added of Berry. "She just seemed to be having a great time."

She was later called back onto the stage by rapper Nelly who dedicated a song to her and danced with her.

Berry, Michelle Knight and Gina DeJesus were rescued from kidnapper Ariel Castro in May, roughly a decade after they were abducted. Castro, who Friday pleaded guilty to kidnapping and rape charges, abused the women and even had a child with Berry.
